About This Guide Topics: Audience, Purpose, and Required Skills Terminology Used in this Guide System Requirements Get Help This user guide shows you how to create and participate in video conferencing meetings using Polycom RealPresence Web Suite. RealPresence Web Suite enables you to schedule and join meetings, participate in web video conferencing meetings, and share content with meeting attendees. Depending on your organization policy, you can also invite social media contacts to join the meetings. Audience, Purpose, and Required Skills The audience for this guide are end users with some familiarity with the video conferencing experience. However, new users should be able to use this guide to familiarize themselves with how RealPresence Web Suite works and how to use the portal clients. This guide provides the information needed to schedule and administer meetings on the RealPresence Web Suite Services Portal and attend meetings using the RealPresence Web Suite Experience Portal. This guide also provides feature information for content sharing, audio and video settings, and meeting control features. Terminology Used in this Guide You will notice the same terms and conventions used repeatedly throughout this guide. Make sure you familiarize yourself with these terms and conventions so that you understand how to perform video conferencing tasks. Attendee Refers to anyone participating in a RealPresence Web Suite meeting. Guest The in-meeting role with the most restrictive level of privileges. A guest attendee can receive audio and video but has limited permissions for other meeting functions. Chairperson The in-meeting role with the greatest level of privileges. A chairperson attendee controls the meeting and has full privileges, including the ability to share content, assign content sharing rights, control the meeting using the Roster, and start or end a meeting. The meeting host is automatically given chairperson rights. Participant The in-meeting role with an intermediate level of privileges. A participant attendee can receive audio and video and typically can also share content. Meeting An active web conference with one or more attendees. Polycom, Inc. 5

About This Guide Roster A list of attendees participating in a RealPresence Web Suite meeting. This list shows all attendees of the meeting whether they joined using a web browser or another type of software or hardware endpoint and displays each attendee role (chairperson, participant, or guest). VMR "VMR" stands for Virtual Meeting Room, a virtual space where a meeting can be held. Each VMR has a numerical identifier associated with it. RealPresence Web Suite works with two types of VMRs: Personal VMR that is persistent, reusable, and typically assigned for the use of a particular meeting host. Ad hoc VMR that is ephemeral and created to host a single meeting instance. Content Documents, graphics, whiteboards, blackboards, or videos that are shared with other meeting attendees. Extension A computer program that extends the functionality of a web browser in some manner. Plug-in A software component that adds a specific feature to an existing software application, such as a web browser. System Requirements Because the RealPresence Web Suite connects to video conferences through web browsers on a computer or mobile device, you should consult with your company IT or system administrators to ensure that your system and browser meet the minimum required specifications.

When using WebRTC, you may experience the following: You do not need to install a plug-in to join meetings, but you will need to install the RealPresence Web Suite Extension to share your screen. You will have to grant permission to your browser to access your camera and microphone. Setting your microphone and camera preferences and permissions are done through the browser itself, not the RealPresence Web Suite Experience Portal interface. You do not have an audio or video settings menu or options when joining a meeting. You might start a call in mesh mode (three or fewer participants) and later transition to a call using an MCU bridge. In some cases, you may not be able to connect to the meeting through WebRTC, and the system will offer you the option of installing a plug-in. Join a Meeting from a Mobile Device If you are joining a meeting from a tablet or smartphone, you connect to the meeting through RealPresence Mobile.
